Abstract: An apparatus to insure safe behavior in an inverter system. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a first high side gate driver, a first low side gate driver, a microcontroller configured to control the first high side and low side gate drivers. A voltage regulator provides a supply voltage to the microcontroller. A first pair of high side voltage regulators provide a first pair of high side supply voltages to the first high side gate driver. A first pair of low side voltage regulators provide a first pair of low side supply voltages to the first low side gate driver.

Abstract: The invention relates to anti-HCV antibodies and more specifically to neutralizing anti-HCV antibodies and their variable and complementarity determining regions (CDR). In particular, the neutralizing anti-HCV antibodies are neutralizing anti-HCV envelope protein 1 (HCV E1) antibodies. Also subject of the invention are compositions comprising these antibodies, CDRs or variable regions, and compounds comprising at least one of the CDRs or variable regions of said antibodies. Further subject of the invention are the application of any of said antibodies, CDRs, variable regions or compounds in HCV prophylaxis, therapy, and diagnosis, as well as methods for producing the antibodies.

Abstract: Package for a very high frequency integrated circuit comprising a housing provided with a recess whose bottom is metallized and provided with peripheral connectors, and including a connection device inserted in the recess between the integrated circuit and the connectors, this connection device including a substrate that presents an upper surface comprising microstrip lines to connect contact studs of the integrated circuit to the connectors of the housing and a metallized lower surface to form a ground plane.
